my car


thanks mzmtg it looks good

 

lookin good

 

Get new rims. :\

 

thats very close to my modded intrax.

keep the rims!

 

Looks very good, i was thinking about lowering but i have to wait until next year. Get some 17's.

 

hows the ride quality?

 

lookin good.... it should get a little lower after they settle right? cus my sprints look a little lower than yours. but still lookin good.

 

It'll be interesting to see how these struts hold up, I think you're the first on the .org to get them. Looks good.

 

the drop looks good man

please give us more information and detail regarding ST shocks cuz it's fairly new to 4th gen aftermarket suspension upgrades. i believe other members want to know as well.

 

rides stiff and i think its pretty good but i wont recommend 2" drop seriously lol its too low

 

Thats pretty low .. . im dropped about 2.5 inches in the front and 2 in the back and although the ride is pretty smooth, I have bottomed out on numerous occasions.

 

That drop looks nice. I bet the car handles considerably better now...

 

What exactly did you do to your Inrax springs?

 

The ride is too bad. But it is not as good as Ben's H&R/GR-2 combo or my Progress/GR-2 combo. But for hte price, it is not bad at all.

 

Actually I've had those struts for about a year now. They aren't the best things in the world but they're holding up. I think their rebound isn't all that great and the car feels bouncy. I doubt it's the spring as they are pretty stiff, arospeed, and handle really well.

 

cut 2 coils off the front.

rode about the same untill i hit a large bump. not much travel so it hit the bump stop. cut springs are a nono, but i could have gotten away with cutting one coil (dead coil). no bounce though

 

CIVIC!!!!!!

 

i have the same suspension. we probably bought it from the same place. my back sits high also though it looks a bit higher then yours...might just be the pics. i'm cutting a damn coil in a few weeks...maybe a few coils....handeling is much better. the struts are...stiff? i bet they blow out in 6 months though. i paid 250 for this kit. thats mad cheap and those struts must be sheat. ya well ya...

 

I think I'm lower.....

 

The best thing about those springtech struts is that the lower mounting holes are slotted. This give you plenty of camber adjustment.

They did feel a little soft though. But overall, they aren't too bad.

 

You're right about that, they are soft. But for $190 shipped it's not bad.

 

MaximaPolak: dont worry i have Eibachs too..... why dont you say civic all the cut sprint owners? hehe its all good


MZMTG: slotted you say? you think the housings would work well with Koni inserts?

 

Possibly, but Konis aren't worth the time, effort, or money to install.

Just bust out a die grinder and slot the lower holes in your AGXs.

 

not worth the time huh? dang and i wanted to make some shortened front struts too.

 

nice, now throw some bricks in your trunk

 

how good are thsoe st shocks

 

Looks good,I'm looking to do the same to my own car
